Abstract

A resource management and control method provides a first electronic device display an interface of a first application and invokes a second application of an associated second electronic device in response to an operation on the first application to establish a first association relationship between the first application and the second application, where the first association relationship provides that the first application is in a foreground running state. The first electronic device updates the first association relationship to a second association relationship when the first application is switched from the foreground running state to a background running state, where the second association relationship includes that the first application is in the background running state, and the first electronic device keeps the first application alive based on the second association relationship.

         7 . The method according to  claim 3 , wherein the third management and control manner comprises:
 increasing a priority of a process of the first application; or   placing a process of the first application at an end of a killable process list.   
     
     
         8 . The method according to  claim 4 , wherein the fourth management and control manner comprises:
 maintaining the first application alive within a preset time.   
     
     
         9 . The method according to  claim 5 , wherein the fifth management and control manner comprises:
 decreasing a priority of a process of the first application; or   freezing the first application when system memory is less than a preset memory value; or   clearing the first application when system memory is less than a preset memory value.   
     
     
         10 . The method according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 deleting, by the first electronic device, the second association relationship when the first electronic device detects, through listening, that the first application ends.   
     
     
         11 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the establishing a first association relationship between the first application and the second application comprises:
 receiving an invocation result sent by the second electronic device; and   establishing the first association relationship between the first application and the second application based on the result.
